@mari_moulin - wishing you a speedy recovery
@lindamtuck2018 - I can’t function before coffee either. Great job!
@Megan_smartiepants1970 - I’m so glad you are pain free. Thank you for stepping up and co-leading our team.
@Tazaria87 - way to stick to your step goal!
@onward1 - stacking wood is definitely a work out. It must feel good to get all of that accomplished
@28Haveitall2020 - nice loss!3 -

Check-in for Monday 8/31
Calories: under
Water: 113oz
Exercise: 5.6 mile trail ride (bike)
Steps: 3790 (below goal but the bike ride was more than enough exercise)
I weigh everyday and I am seeing the scale creep up despite staying on track. I know there are lots of variables and it will settle back down. I just hate seeing it go in the wrong direction. I just hope it rights itself by weigh-in day.1 -

Weigh in Day is Monday
Treadmill 1 mile --- Yes x 2 miles
Water (60 oz) -- 72 ounces [note I did decide to change this from 128, I will drown if I drink that much.. haha]
Workout 3x week -- Tues Sept 1-yes
2000 steps -- 8025 steps today
Logged all food/drink -- yes
Question on "steps"... do you count treadmill workouts in steps? I did today, but wondering if that is the "normal" thing to do. Example:
Total Steps today 8025
Treadmill AM was 2641 steps
Treadmill PM was 2648 steps
Leaving a remainder of steps from other activities today at 2736 steps
So are my steps 8025 or should they be 2736?1 -

I personally would count the 80250 -

Keep with your goals and you will see a drop in weight!Check-in for Monday 8/31

That scale can be so frustrating. I was up almost 4 pounds this morning. I suspect with me sodium is partly the reason. Stay on track and it will go down.ScorpioGirl70 wrote: »Scorpiogirl70

I agree with Megan, count the 8025. It is the total steps for the day.0 -

Question regarding your steps. I am not sure if I have your Sunday steps. Can you confirm them for me?0 -
@lindamtuck2018 Still no email ...but I did make a chart of everyone and their steps so when I am able to it will make it easier for me to input 0

@lindamtuck2018 - I suspect sodium is my reason as well. I checked the label and the carne asada seasoning that I have been using for days on my grilled chicken breast is LOADED with sodium. No wonder it tastes so damn good.0

It is really frustrating how sodium causes some people trouble and others none. My husband loves salami and I don’t get for him too often. I decided to have a couple of pieces. I blew up like a balloon.Daily Post Tuesday

Keep working at it and you will get the snacking beat. I like that you are tracking everything. I think since I started this I have only not logged maybe 3 days. By logging I am being honest with myself. Do you snack at a particular time of day?0 -

Hang in there. With yesterday behind you, today is a clean slate to meet your calorie goal. One thing that does help me is to pre log my day. Actually, every Sunday I log my food for the week. That way I know what I am going to have and by sticking to what I logged it is easier to stay within my calorie goal.1 -

Tuesday’s check in
Calories: under
Exercise: 31 minute walk
Water: ✅
Steps: 6,560

I missed my step goal yesterday and I don’t see it happening today. My arthritis is really bad today. I think I am in a flare as I have been really fatigued lately too. I have sjogrens as well so that’s contributing. It is an autoimmune disorder. Maybe I am just getting old. 😂 I will be back in fighting form in no time hopefully.
Happy Hump Day!
Today’s goals
1. No binge eating
2. 30 minute walk
3. 8000 steps
4. clean for 30 minutes1 -
